Prepper is another term used to refer to a survivalist blog. As
the term survivalist rooted from survival, the word prepper came from the word
prepare although it is not yet widely recognized in dictionaries. They are
people or groups of people who actively prepare for disasters whether natural
or manmade. They are self-reliant and engage in different things that would
make them more prepared for anything that could come their way. They are people
who usually encourage others to do whatever they are doing to also prepare. If
you visit a prepper blog, you will surely find different means to prepare
yourself too.

According to these people there are several basics that you
must first prepare before moving on to other necessities for survival.

Strong body. Whether you are
ensuring your survival from a war or a natural disaster, you always need
to be fit in order to survive. A fit body can make it easier for you to
move faster. It can also make you strong. It does not necessarily mean building
muscles; it just means having a body free from diseases or things that
could hinder survival. Exercise and a healthy diet are essential for them
at all times.

Sharp mind. You need to have a
clear and sharp mind at all times. This will lead you to act rationally
and faster in desperate times. Preppers have several sets of exercises for
the brain that makes it possible for them to make sound decisions even
during heavy pressure. A sharp mind also helps them analyze a situation
faster.

With these two basics set straight, people will be able to
think better and help them determine what they need to do in order to survive
different situations. Even if a person only has his body, if he is strong
enough to move and able to think straight, he will be able to find different
means to last.
